Brothers of the Southland
guitar chords lyrics
(Henry Paul/Dave Robbins/Peterick)
From the hills they came
From backwoods without a name
Carrying their guitars and a heart full of southern soul
Down the dusty roads of Caroline
The Tucker boys were friends of mine
They echo through the lonely pines
Running down the road
And the day the Caldwells died
Before the rugged cross we cried
A voice from deep inside
Said you gotta carry on
And on and
We are brothers of the southland
Singers in the same band
And on and
We are brothers of the southland
Singers in the same band
Spirits on the wind
Standing on this stage together
Our song goes on forever
We are of heavens plans
We are brothers of the southland
Brothers of the southland
Tattered old revival tent
And ragged voices heaven sent
Singing halleluiah and dancing in the aisles
Ronnie was a barefoot child
An angels voice and the devils smile
We only had him for a little while
But the world still sings his songs
And the day the freebird died
Before the rugged cross we cried
They grey ghost he rides
Said you gotta carry on
And on and
We are the brothers of the southland
Singers in the same band
Spirits on the wind
Whoa, Standing on this stage together
Our songs goes on forever
We are part of heavens plan
We are brothers of the southland
Brothers of the southland
We are the brothers of the southland
--- Instrumental ---
And the day Duane Allman died
With Barry Oakly by his side
They took one last midnight ride
Whoa, We are brothers of the southland
Singers in the same band
Spirits on the wind
Whoa, Standing on this stage together
A bridge across forever
We are part of heavens plan
We are the brothers of the southland
Brothers of the southland
Brothers of the southland
We are brothers of the southland...
